Expert Program of Environmental Management of Nuclear Emergencies and Disposal Radioactive Waste, University of Tsukuba

Study the monitoring radioactivity of the water in Italy.

What skills and competencies do we need as a human resources in the field of nuclear science and technology? Learn it from the experts of radiation environmental risk management.

Lessons from Fukushima Nuclear Accident (2016)

Through the internship in Ukraine (Chernobyl), Austria (IAEA), UK (University of Liverpool, 2016), and France (IRSN, 2017), students learn practical knowledge and application skills.

We will introduce emergency monitoring, atmospheric diffusion, impact on agriculture, impact on rivers, lakes, ecosystems, measurement methods, etc. on the current situation and issues of emergency efforts against nuclear disasters.

We introduce state-of-the-art research on identification and distribution and behavior of extremely small radionuclides in the environment from the basis of radiation, animal and plant influences.

Understanding the radiation nuclide released into the environment as a result of a nuclear accident etc., the relationship between its diffusion, deposition and transition process and water / material circulation. In addition, we introduce monitoring method and modeling method for environmental impact assessment of nuclear disaster.

We introduce state-of-the-art research on ultra-trace radioactive nuclide measurement, distribution and behavior in the environment from the basis of radiation, animal and plant influences.

A kick-off symposium of “Environmental and ecological impact risk management program (ENEP) by nuclear disaster” established at Department of Environmental Science, held on March 13, 2016 (Saturday). A lecture on the outline and environmental impact of nuclear disasters in each country such as Chernobyl (Ukraine), USA, Ireland, Russia.
